And also, is there a way to root after 2.1 OTA? SO i can run an OC kernal?

Can't tell you how long it will take to get the OTA. If running another kernal is what you want to do then why bother to remove the root at all? You can just go back to root before you installed Droidmod, get ROM Manager from the market and work with it that way.

Wondered this myself... C'mon DM! I don't want to go back to stock... where is our upgrade???

Get ROM manager from the market. Flash CM. U get all the goodies of 2.1 and u get to keep root....

It will not take long for the official update to load once u unroot. I happened to me as I had to flash an sbf file to change the M logo. After activation of the phone I got a message saying that an update is available and asked me if I want to install it.

After you get the 2.1 OTA update...Just follow this guide to the letter and you will have a Pure Stock Rooted 2.1 ROM...that is as reliable and trouble free as stock Then OC kernels are just an update.zip away!

Kellex over at droid-life.com has videos for you to follow. I am thinking of going that route now. I want overclock abilities and wifi-tehtering. I am just worried about returning to stock if I need to have the phone serviced for whatever reasons.

Get rom manager, and flash 2.1 stock w/root. Then flash an oc kernel and be done with it. No rsd required.

Yeah, seriously. If you already have root, there's no reason to take the OTA update. If anything, you can just take the modified OTA update that keeps root and install that manually. Make sure to return to stock 2.0.1 (rooted) first, though.

im having the same issue, but using helix2. love the features, hate the bugs. so since im running a rooted 2.0.1 with a 2.1 rom, can i just d/l the stock 2.1 in rom manager and my system update will go away in settings?

i really blew it deleting my other launchers before i really used helix2 a lot. im lazy now and dont want to redo all the folders and screens again

or... should i just do the spr flash thats on droid-life and then go into rom manager and find one i like?
....after i unroot and accept the ota that is..
